The spinal cord is the main bundle of nerves that carries nerve impulses, or messages, to and from the brain. The spinal cord is protected by layers of bone called vertebrae. When the vertebrae are damaged in an accident, the spinal cord can be injured. At the Bonina & Bonina law firm, our personal injury attorneys have an understanding of the medical issues surrounding spinal cord injury.
- Types of spinal cord injury accidents: Any severe blow to the back can cause a spinal cord injury. A fall from a scaffold or a trench accident at a construction site can cause paraplegia or quadriplegia. Defective products such as a seat belt or auto seat back that fails can result in a spinal cord injury. Other spinal cord injuries are caused by car, motorcycle, truck or bus accidents.
- The accident investigation: The sooner you talk to us about your accident, the sooner we can begin our investigation. Our law firm has extensive experience with accident investigations. By proving how the accident happened and who was responsible, we can help you recover the funds you need to deal with a lifelong disability.
- Documentation of the medical facts: Our attorneys have an in-depth knowledge of serious medical conditions from handling accident and medical malpractice cases for more than 40 years. We can call on a network of experts to explain the injury, the disability, and the future needs of the injured person.
The extent of paralysis and disability depends on the level of the spinal cord injury. Generally, the higher the injury on the spinal column, the greater will be the extent of the paralysis. A lower back injury may cause numbness and/or loss of bladder and bowel functions. An injury closer to the neck may cause quadriplegia or paraplegia.
